All Johore Bar members are very kind at heart. Many of us contribute to various
charity organizations and attend all sorts of social events.
Such unseen kindness of the members must be made known and seen!!
Johore Young Lawyers Committee (“JYLC”) is honoured to organise our 1st ever
held Charity Night 2007. It is a voluntary activity, where the young lawyers
dedicate some time out from their busy schedule to organise this event to help
those non/less government funded charity organisations supporting those mentally
and physically disabled persons, regardless of their race or religion.
Out from the caring Bar comes the birth of this Charity Night.

JYLC in aid of Johore Cheshire Home (“JCH”)
Cheshire Home is an international charity organisation helping those physically
and mentally disabled children. The first Cheshire Home was founded in the
United Kingdom by the late Lord Leonard Cheshire in 1948.
Currently, JCH houses 32 residents, the youngest of whom aged 11 with the oldest
aged 70. The racial ratios are 60% Chinese, 30% Malays and 10% Indians. The
longest resident, who has neither family nor relatives, has been residing at the
home for the past 40 years!! On an average, every resident needs RM20-00 per day
(RM600-00 per month) to cover their daily cost of living and medical fees. The
Malaysian Government only helps relieve 20% of such costs at JCH which is only
about RM120-00. 80% of such costs come from contributions from the public. JHC
is facing a deficit of RM480 per month for each person. JHC is currently managed
by 14 volunteered staffs.
